1. What is the Macro Calculator For Fat Loss?

The Macro Calculator For Fat Loss Female helps determine optimal macronutrient distribution for women aiming for fat loss. It calculates protein, fat, and carbohydrate requirements based on daily calorie intake using a scientifically balanced ratio.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the following formulas:

\[ Protein = 30\% \times Calories / 4 \] \[ Fat = 30\% \times Calories / 9 \] \[ Carbs = 40\% \times Calories / 4 \]

Where:

\( Protein \) — Protein intake in grams per day
\( Fat \) — Fat intake in grams per day
\( Carbs \) — Carbohydrate intake in grams per day
\( Calories \) — Total daily calorie intake

Explanation: The formula uses standard calorie values: 4 calories per gram for protein and carbs, 9 calories per gram for fat. The 30/30/40 distribution is optimized for female fat loss.
